Trump: “I met with pollsters the day before I got the news about COVID…They said, ‘Sir, if George Washington and Abraham Lincoln came back from the dead, and they aligned and they went for the president, vice president as a combination. You'd be beating them by 25 points.’”

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem should resign and be criminally charged, according to critics who seized on a report revealing that zero people who were arrested in a high-profile raid were charged with a crime.

Agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter in a massive show of force. Authorities said Tren de Aragua “terrorists” had taken over the building.
But after the cameras were gone, federal prosecutors did not charge anyone.

Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

Current Democratic Party leadership is disgraceful. Last week proved voting Democrats believe that the time is now to fight the Trump administration.
Leadership apparently disagrees. Schumer must go.
The opening segment tonight was insulting/condescending. Do better.

For the record, it’s going to be a long while before my anger subsides at the Democrats who surrendered. They’ve made this fight harder. But I won’t allow my anger to distract from the necessary focus on Trump & the feckless Republicans who will exploit every weakness to intensify their demolition.

If you doubt the Democratic leadership decision to fold (despite having Republicans on their heels) is a disaster, be aware that the move is being applauded by #JoeScarborough.
